Ch 9 - Book pdf

• Sampling Distributions
o Sampling distributions: sampling variability & bias
• Sample Proportions
o Sampling distribution of sample proportion
• Samples Means
o Sampling distribution of sample mean; the Central Limit Theorem
Central Limit Demonstration

From KA: Standard Error of the Mean (a.k.a. the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean!)

KA 30:Central Limit Theorem


KA 31: Sampling Distribution of the Sample Mean
Simulation on RVLS: Sampling Distribution


KA 32: Sampling Distribution of the Sample Mean 2


KA 33: Standard Error of the Mean


KA 34: Sampling Distribution Example Problem
The average male drinks 2 liters of water when active outdoors with the standard deviation of 0.7 liters.
You are planning a full day nature trip for 50 men and will bring 110 liters of water.
What is the probability that you will run out of water?
